贝尼托·墨索里尼执政时期意大利红海地区扩张政策

Red Sea Region Expansion Policy of Italy under Ruling of Benito Mussolini

扩张政策是贝尼托·墨索里尼法西斯政府对外政策的核心。重建古罗马帝国辉煌的愿望、意大利国内的经济危机、红海地区的各种矛盾、对英国欺骗性外交和英国拥有大量殖民地的不满,以及当时有利的国际环境共同促成了意大利对红海地区的扩张。意大利对红海地区的扩张表现在:对埃塞俄比亚等国的军事入侵、对红海地区国家的政治渗透、对占领区农业生产的管制、对殖民地的宗教改造。扩张政策在实施过程中受到了英国和占领区人民的阻挠而终归破产,意大利垄断资产阶级内部产生分裂,意大利经济开始崩溃,贝尼托·墨索里尼政权最终垮台。

Expansion policy is the core foreign policy of Benito Mussolini＇s fascist government. The desire to regain the ancient Rome Empire＇s brilliancy, economic crisis in local Italy, all conflicts in the Red Sea region, the displeasure to the United Kingdom for its deceptive diplomacy and its control on large colonies, as well as the favorable international circumstance at that time, all of the above contribute to the Italy＇s expansion on the Red Sea region. The expansion is manifested in the following ways： military invasion of countries like Ethiopia, political penetration on states in the Red Sea region, control on agriculture industry of occupied territory, and forcing people in colony changing their religion belief. Fortunately, the expansion policy went bankrupt for both obstruction of the United Kingdom and people in the occupied territories. And the internal division of monopoly bourgeoisie together with the economy collapse in Italy led to the fall of Benito Mussolini regime.
